EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The Vaux Percherons, or dray horses are lined up for inspection in 1970" we are transported back to a bygone era when these magnificent creatures played an integral role in our daily lives. The image captures a moment of quiet anticipation as the noble Vaux Percherons, renowned for their strength and grace, stand patiently side by side awaiting inspection. It is the early 1970s, and these majestic dray horses symbolize not only the hardworking spirit of their dedicated handlers but also represent a fading tradition. Once indispensable in transporting heavy loads through bustling city streets, they now find themselves at the cusp of modernization. Their muscular frames glisten under the sunlight while their gentle eyes reveal both wisdom and resilience acquired from years of service. These loyal companions have forged deep bonds with their draymen counterparts who rely on them to navigate treacherous paths laden with barrels and crates. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we cannot help but feel a sense of nostalgia for an era where man and beast worked hand-in-hoof together. It serves as a reminder that progress often comes at a cost – leaving behind cherished traditions that defined our past. This remarkable photograph captured by NCJ takes us on an evocative journey into history's embrace. It immortalizes not just the Vaux Percherons' physical presence but also pays homage to all those unsung heroes who labored tirelessly alongside them
